How to become a Product Manager, for real!

When I started learning to become a Product Manager, there were very few good materials to go about. If I were to start again today, here is what I would do:

1) Create Your Own Product
Nothing beats hands-on experience. Start a side project or build a simple product to understand the end-to-end process and polish your skills on the goal. Start your own blog, YouTube channel, or app, set goals for it, and use the Product loop for marketable stories and experiences!

2) Join a helpful community
It will be really helpful to join the right crowd. For example www. productmanagementadviser .com which connects you with experts, practical advice, and a supportive network to accelerate your growth as a Product Manager. Clickable link in the comments!
